Freakishly ugly good guys

Oh, I see what you mean.

For me it's X-Men 3.

There's this movie coming, called "The Chancellor Manuscript" after a book of the same title by Robert Ludlum. It's going to have Leonardo di Caprio as Peter Chancellor in it.

The reason why I mention this is the fact that Peter Chancellor has a crippled leg and a large scar on his head because he was in a car accident. So, unless they change the script, we're going to see an ugly good guy.

Ugly good guys? Do we really want more Rob Schneider movies?

I have an ugly good guy: Mark Hamill. He got into a car wreck before filming Empire and he came back with buggy eyes and a scarred mouth.

On the other side of that, we're gonna see an ugly good guy played by Leonardo di Caprio.

Hollywood's gonna have to try a little harder, methinks.

Well, despite having done films like "Titanic" Leonardo DiCaprio is actually a very good actor. And I'm saying that as someone who started out biased against him. Or did you mean he's not ugly enough?

I think that there are several movies in which the protagonist is disfigured in some way. What about "Mask" (with Cher and Eric Stoltz, not Jim Carrey)?

I never noticed ugliness. (But I DO notice your awesome Ash siggy!)

Yeah, I just meant he's not ugly enough. I mean, anyone who's been in the same sentence with the words "teen heart-throb" isn't fit to the image of ugliness I think should be portrayed in movies. Maybe I'm being picky.

How about Sloth from the 80s movie "The Goonies", he was a bad guy at first but we find out he really is a good guy and was deformed looking with make-up on, and he is very popular with the generation who grew up in that era. HEY YOU GUUYYYYYYS!
